My name is Nancy Paul and I am fortunate to be a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend and am surrounded by many truly wonderful people. My life has taken many twists and turns, all leading to who I am today. I am grateful for the opportunity to be in a career that makes use of my life experiences and my natural tendency towards compassion and encouragement.

As a member of the International Coach Federation (ICF), I practice coaching in accordance with the ICF’s Standards of Ethical Conduct. I have earned the designation of Certified Professional Coach (CPC) after having successfully completed my coach training at the International Coach Academy (ICA). ICA is an ICF Accredited Coach Training Program and offers a rigorous and well rounded training program, as well as continuing education. The reality is that I have been training to be a coach for much of my life as I have always been energized and fulfilled by helping others gain insight and new perspectives in all sorts of life issues. I will continue various studies to keep current with strategies, technologies and methods to improve people's lives.

The career I built for 14 years of my life involved helping small businesses and individuals with their bookkeeping and tax needs. While this mostly involved working with numbers I was also be able to help people understand their true talents and to define and achieve their personal and business goals. My prior work also includes over 6 years as owner of a retail store specializing in self-help books and products and over 10 years as a country/swing dance competitor and instructor teaching individuals, couples and groups. I really enjoyed relating to and helping people accomplish this social skill and enjoyed watching them gain confidence as they improved through my lessons.

My entrepreneur skills, work ethic and drive to succeed are brought into my coaching. I want to touch as many lives as possible while remaining available for my children and family. I have learned in my own life the importance of understanding values, defining goals, maintaining integrity, self-confidence and being accountable. I have also learned that making decisions are easiest when you base them on your values. By bringing these traits with me to my coaching business I look forward to helping you reach your goals and gain control through your coaching program.
